Kim Kardashian & North West Look So Happy in Sweet New Airport Photo

For the most part, Kim Kardashian likes to keep her baby girl under wraps. The reality star has played it rather close to the vest when it comes to showing off photos of North on her social media accounts, and she isn't typically seen with her daughter in public -- possibly out of fear that the two will be photographed. But sometimes, the paparazzi manage to creep in and get a great shot.

Kim and North were photographed at LAX recently, and in an adorable twist of events, North happened to be looking directly at the person taking her photo and even cracked a small smile. Oh, the cuteness!

The photo was snapped a few days ago when Kim and North were heading to New York to visit Kanye. According to onlookers, Kim pushed Nori in a stroller through the airport and the baby was very well-behaved. Lucky mama!

At this point, I think it's safe to say that North is probably more well-traveled than most of us. And also, it's nice to see Kim with her sweet daughter -- perhaps this will shut the "OMG, she's never with her kid" haters up!
